Airport Transfers
For a 5 am flight from IGI, the time of leaving Gurgaon is 3.30 am, sometimes earlier if there is the possibility of delays due to fog season in NH48. This is not a time to be checking on an app cab's surge multiplier, or waiting for a driver to take a ride. But that's the very issue with which Ajay Car Rental's airport taxi service tackles: a set price with a definite time, a driver that will be there at that exact time, and a reduced amount of work on your travel day.
Since 2006, we have been operating airport transfers from Gurgaon, to and from all three terminals of the IGI. The difference between booking with us and opening a ride-hailing app is a matter of a few things that are most important when it comes to flights: you're not subjected to the outrageous surge prices that everyone else is getting in the morning they are trying to get to the airport; you don't find yourself with an empty cab waiting for a delayed flight inbound; and no one is assigned to your booking, and instead of that someone is nearby in the morning, when you're opening an app.
Airport Taxi Booking
Our Airport Taxi Transfers come with the following amenities:
What comes standard with every airport transfer we book for you is a little more than what you would have to pay for on your own:
A set fee that is known when booking. You're charged what you're quoted and, if demand is high, no extra multiplier at midnight or first thing in the morning!
For pickup bookings, flight tracking is a feature that allows them to track the flight. If your inbound flight arrives late, the driver's arrival time automatically changes (not charging you for the driver waiting or leaving before you've finished customs).
A driver has already been assigned, and contact information has been shared the evening before if they are leaving early in the morning so there is no last minute rush to get hold of a driver that hasn't turned up.
When you call for an airport taxi, you agree to the number printed on the final bill as toll and parking fees are incorporated into the quoted taxi fare.
Gurgaon airport taxi transfers are incredibly convenient and hassle-free.
Why Choose Ajay Car Rental for Airport Transfers
While there are a number of ways to reach IGI from Gurgaon, each comes with an inherent disadvantages to consider against pre-arranged taxi transfers to the airport.
The ride-sharing apps are handy until the rest of your area has made it to the airport. Early morning and late-night slots are two to three times as expensive as the regular timeslot price, and the cancellation of drivers near the time of pickup is a frequent occurrence, so it can be a real risk to miss a flight.
Self-driving involves paying for long-stay parking at the airport or requesting someone to collect the car on the return trip with the added danger of driving through Delhi's jams after a long-haul flight.
In some cases, public transport is available, but not always a flight time that is equivalent to an odd hour, and pushing bags through a metro station at 4 am isn't most people's ideal starting point for a holiday.
Pick up and drop off from the airport is the solution that eliminates all three issues. You do not have to book anyone or any vehicle for the trip, the driver is guaranteed and the vehicle arrives at your door instead of you seeking it out.
Airport Taxi Booking Made Simple
It takes a couple minutes to book, it could be tomorrow morning or 3 weeks out:
Use the app, call or WhatsApp to share your flight information, pickup/drop address and vehicle types. The airport taxi booking is a service provided by the airport, which is used to travel from and to the airport.Airport taxi booking is a service offered by the airport service for travel to and from the airport, for which we ask for the flight number in particular from the start.
Booking is confirmed with driver and vehicle provided, and we inform you before pick-up of who this will be, especially if you're picking up early in the morning.
If the day of the flight, the driver shows up at the scheduled time, or automatically adjusts it, if inbound flight is delayed. No reason to have to switch apps or re-book when plans change by 20 minutes.
Please book airport transfers two hours or more in advance for regular transfers, same day or urgent requests will be accepted if schedules allow.
An Airport Transfer has numerous options for vehicles.There are many options to choose from for an Airport Transfer.
Not all trips to the airport require the same vehicle, so airport taxi transfers are offered in several different types, depending on the group size and the passengers' preferences:
The most popular type of sedan hire in Delhi for common travelers, who book sedans for regular airport taxi rides, are Swift Dzire and Etios.
When family and friends are heading out with more bags than a sedan's boot will comfortably accommodate, or for longer trips, SUVs like Innova and Innova Crysta are popular choices.
Luxury cars from our Mercedes, BMW and Audi range for travellers who prefer an airport transfer to start and end their trip with a more upscale feel are often requested for business trips or when collecting visiting clients.
People who travel at a particular speed for group hire purposes, which could be beneficial in the event that a complete team or family are traveling together and a single vehicle is more affordable and easier to book than multiple airport taxi bookings.
Luggage and Group Size
Large suitcases and carry-on bags fit in the sedan snugly, and it gets a pretty decent amount of room to spare, so most single and double bookings will fit into it fine. If you always have to pack the golf bag in the boot, you have oversized bags or you are travelling with a family of four and the usual volume of stuff that comes with that – an SUV is the way to go, no boot-packing puzzle needed and no one will have to keep a golf bag on their lap for the whole trip.
A tempo traveller is typically cheaper and much easier than a group booking two or three sedans to be arranged to get to the terminal at the same time when travelling in a group of six or more to the same flight. When booking we are asking about luggage and group size in order to ensure that the vehicle that is sent is the right size for what you are bringing not on the day.
Routes and Travel Time to IGI
The travel time to IGI Airport does make a difference depending on the area in Gurgaon from where are you travelling so this is taken into consideration while we quote the pickup time for every booking. The Delhi-Gurgaon Expressway usually takes 30-45 minutes from Cyber City and DLF Phase areas to the airport, if there is no congestion on NH48 during the morning and evening rush periods. If coming from Sohna Road or even lower, expect to arrive nearer to an hour, depending on normal traffic flow.
We do not think to give you the quickest drive times and leave you short of time for bookings – we allow for buffer time for peak hour drives. If you are departing during Gurgaon's morning traffic, we suggest that you pick up at a time when you consider the realistic drive time and not the optimistic one.
Pickup Bookings vs Drop-Off Bookings
While it may seem like the two directions of an airport trip are the same booking, they are not and treating them as such is where a lot of generic airport taxi transfers fall short.
Mostly about timing is a drop-off booking, home to airport. You know when you leave, we work backwards from the suggested check-in time and usual driving time to arrange the departure time, sufficient buffer time has been set for the traffic on NH48 or the expressway in peak hours.
Mostly, a pickup booking refers to uncertainty, between airport and home or office. Flights are delayed and sometimes customs is a bit slow, and sometimes it takes 45 minutes to get your bags. That's why it is important to track your flights on this particular part of airport taxi transfers; because the driver will adjust his arrival to the time you actually land and are cleared to depart, rather than a time that may not be current by the time you are walking out of the terminal.
We used to consider these as two separate problems with two separate solutions, that is, not running both on the same generic playbook, that's what most airport transfer providers do.
Business travellers and frequent flyers can also book secure airport transfers.Business travellers and frequent flyers can also make safe airport transfers.
If you are planning on taking a flight from Gurgaon on a regular basis, week on week, the repeat booking airport transfers should not be an opportunity to repeat your request every time. If a client has had an Airport Taxi service before, we maintain Customer's preferred vehicle type, regular pick-up address and any instructions, such as preferring the expressway route to the highway, on file, and a returning client's Airport Taxi booking only takes a minute to confirm.
The airport pick-up and drop-off service can be billed in the same manner as other business trips, and trips will be clearly itemized for expense reporting purposes, in addition to not arriving as a separate unconnected invoice each time.
Safety and Technology
All transfer vehicles are equipped with GPS and you can track them live on the go, as well as by our dispatch team. Drivers are subjected to identity checks before they are booked to airports, and the same panic button and tracking system as the rest of our fleet are in place.
If you're travelling from or to the airport early in the morning or later in the evening, female passengers can also specify other safety measures, such as the driver's identity being provided to a trusted contact before departure upon request.
Pricing and Transparency
Airport taxi transfers are priced according to the flat-rate system where the pickup and drop-off destinations, vehicle and timings are considered, rather than a metered rate which increases as traffic increases. At booking the fare quoted is what you will pay at the end of the trip - toll charges are included in the fare not added as an extra.
In case the travellers are frequent flyers, there are also simple arrangements to re-book the flight whenever required, without having to start the process and re-quote the flight from scratch again and again.
